Locust

For the similarly named armor with an integrated jump pack, see Locust armor.

A locust is a type of flying insectoid added by the Odyssey DLC.

Acquisition[edit]

Locusts can be found under mountains in caves or infestations (and inside ancient shrines, including inside the caskets)?. They can be tamed by a handler.

Summary[edit]

After being trained on foraging, locusts will forage on average 0.36 nutrition/day, scaled by the forageability of the biome. Because locusts only consume 0.24 nutrition/day, including kibble, they usually more than make up for what they eat.

Analysis[edit]

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Guard:
Attack:
Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

In addition, a Locust can be trained to perform 'Forage': “The animal will occasionally find berries, mushrooms, or food. Animals will find more food in biomes with higher forageability. Foraging can only be done on fertile terrain.”

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ Note that eating won't go below 10%. See specific pages for details.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.

↑ Note: This is the actual base average derived from the melee verb system updated in 1.1.2610, it may sometimes disagree with the listed value in the in-game infobox.
It may also change depending on the stats and the melee verbs available to the pawn.
↑ Assuming a melee hit chance of 62%
↑ Chance for attack to be selected. It may change depending on the melee verbs available to the pawn.
